YOU HAVE TO LIVE IN THE WORLD
Meher Baba
Internal renunciation is necessary, but not external
renunciation. It is not the outward escape from the world that
leads you to God. You have to live in the world, do all your
duties, and yet feel as detached as if you were living in
seclusion in the midst of intense activity. How can you renounce
this body and mind by retiring into the jungles?
